    Plan For Peace

    Contributed by Derrick Bunnell on Nov 26, 2004
    based on 4 ratings
     | 4,627 views

    Peace is not merely the absence of activity or hostility, nor is it just getting away from reality. Peace can be described as both the freedom from disturbance as well as an inward sense of well-being.

    In the world today people call for peace. They paint signs, write letters, drop bombs, and murder trouble makers, all in the name of peace. As I’m sure you all know the Bible tells us there will be no peace, and here are some stats to prove it. According to the Society of International Law in ...read more

    The Requirements Of The New Covenant

    Contributed by Jonathan Twitchell on Dec 7, 2006
    based on 4 ratings
     | 6,653 views

    The author of Hebrews has made the case that the New Covenant is superior to (and fulfills) the Old Covenant. What then are the requirements of this new covenant?

    Before we continue our study of Hebrews this morning, I want to take a moment to comment on our Gospel lesson found in Mark chapter 12. I love that short little story about the widow who placed her two coins in the offering. I love the way that Jesus so graciously commends this woman—not because ...read more

    The Righteousness Of Job

    Contributed by Scott Coltrain on Sep 5, 2002
    based on 69 ratings
     | 28,194 views

    Everyone has heard of the patience or endurance of Job. However, we often forget that Job’s greatest attribute, according to God, was his righteousness. In this study, we will examine Job’s righteousness and see how we can and should imitate it.

    One of the most extraordinary people found in the Old Testament is Job. I think that multitudes, including many who are not overly knowledgeable about the Bible, has heard of the "patience or endurance of Job". Of course, this refers to the fact that - in a short span of time - Job lost his ...read more

     | 6,164 views

    A little play on words here, but with a serious intent. The message encourages us to gain victories over the flesh, so that our Spirit man can flourish in the Lord, and gain strength; while our flesh "loses weight"!

    Stand & Read - 1 Cor. 3:1-7 “And I, brethren, could not speak to you as to spiritual men, but as to men of flesh, as to babes in Christ. [2] I gave you milk to drink, not solid food; for you were not yet able to receive it. Indeed, even now you are not yet able, [3] for you are still fleshly. ...read more

    The poor have a special place in God’s heart, and God expects His people to remember and respond appropriately to the poor.

    Introduction: A. As you know, I like the Peanuts cartoons. 1. In one cartoon, Lucy approaches Charlie Brown with a piece of paper and a pen, and says, “Here sign this.
